The IPSec protocol is used to establish a secure connection, and is

 

 

widely used by VPN (Virtual Private Networking) programs.

 

 

• If checked, IPSec connections are allowed.

 

 

• If not checked, IPSec connections are blocked.

 

 

 

 

 

Allow PPTP

PPTP (Point to Point Tunneling Protocol) is widely used by VPN

 

 

(Virtual Private Networking) programs.

 

 

• If checked, PPTP connections are allowed.

 

 

• If not checked, PPTP connections are blocked.
